FANTASTIC WEATHER BRINGS OUT THE SAILORS

The wonderful weather over the weekend saw a record turnout of boats this weekend. On Sunday there were over 50 boats competing in the last race of the Spring Series. It was a fantastic turnout and a wonderful sight. Let's hope for more of the same! Sailing Sec.

WELL DONE TO WYC TOPPER SAILORS

WYC Cadets, Conor Lamb, Issie Bruton and Alex Harwood recently competed at the South East Topper Team Racing Event at Redoubt Yacht Club near Hythe. After 5 hours of intensive short sharp races they finished 6th out of 10. They were one of the youngest teams to enter and even managed to beat some of the zone squad teams! Well done to all three for representing Whitstable Yacht Club. Sailing Sec.

2012 RNLI PURSUIT RACE

The annual RNLI Pursuit Race held on Bank Holiday Monday was won by Richard Ledger sailing a Dart 18, chased closely by John Cooper and Phil Emery in their Merlins. A big thank you to John Boorman for running the race from a RIB as our old Committee Boat, Slotty Dawes, is no longer. Well done to everyone who took part and helped raise ?80.40 for the RNLI. Sailing Sec.
